Full lantern sleeves, generous positive ease, and an elegant garter rib yoke texture make this pullover suitable for any occasion. Valley Yarns Whately, a sumptuously soft baby alpaca and pima cotton blend, makes it both cozy and cool; in other words, ideal for transitional weather. Try the boxy cropped version with high-waisted jeans or over a spring dress. The longer A-line tunic version is versatile enough to wear with anything. Centaurus is knit in the round almost seamlessly from the top down. The textured yoke pattern is charted and written out.
